#1 Fail Reason Reaction to hazards on the busy N25 bypass and the surrounding roundabouts is a frequent reason for failure. Candidates also often struggle with pedestrian awareness near the town's popular waterfront and shopping areas. Track these zones in the app →
Red Zone: Summer weekends and Friday afternoons are the worst times because of the massive influx of visitors to the Waterford Greenway. Mid-day during the week is also busy with local shoppers and delivery vehicles.

Local Hazards

The 'Devonshire' bridge and the town's large roundabouts on the N25 approach are key features. Residential estates near the harbor often have very narrow entrances that test your positioning.

Community Advice

The roundabouts on the N25 bypass are a key focus area. In the town, watch for the narrow streets near the harbor and ensure you give way to pedestrians at the square.

Arrival & Parking Protocol

Tip: The Dungarvan centre provides on-site parking in a dedicated RSA lot. The site is easily accessible and offers a quiet environment for the initial technical questions before the road portion of the test.
